I hate to do this, but I am in such bad shape right now, I don't know what else to do.
I have exactly $6.93 in the bank right now.
I am three months behind on my mortgage. I'm really afraid I am going to be foreclosed on. My mortgage is less than what it would cost me to rent something, so losing my house right now would be detrimental. My parents are already boarding my aunt, so I don't even know where I will go if I lose my house.
I am also a month behind on all of my utilities. They were threatening to shut off my electricity tomorrow and I had to use my last $120 to pay it, but it is due again in two weeks and I don't know how I will pay it then.
I haven't been able to buy groceries for two months. I eat one meal a day at my parents on most days. I have flour and beans and stuff like that for the other days.
I have been looking for full time work, but nothing has come up. I am trying to make ends meet with freelance writing, but the work is never steady. Last month I only made $700. This month I am on track to make even less. I am a good writer, I should be making a lot more, but finding work has been difficult. I've been working for very little pay on jobs through oDesk, but that is not getting the bills paid, obviously.
I need to come up with $1600 to catch up on my mortgage and another $500 to catch everything else up.
And, as if that isn't bad enough, last week my main air conditioner went out and I can't even afford a service call to find out what is wrong with it. I'm in Phoenix, so this has been horrible. I have been living in my bedroom with a portable A/C since then. It doesn't really cool the room, but if I aim it directly at me and don't move I can tolerate the heat. I don't know if I will ever be able to get the main A/C fixed.
I'm not asking for a handout, just some help finding work. I do website content creation and WordPress development. If you know anyone looking for these services, can you share my site with them? http://coocoocachaw.com/
I do have a paypal account, but I have debated on whether I should "go there" and ask for donations. I would rather if people could help me find work, but if someone wants to help me financially my paypal is paypal@thatposhgirl.com
Thank you for reading this far. Any help is appreciated.
